    Wow, talk about high hopes. I wouldn't bid a fourth of what he's asking. Cheaper to catch ammo at Cabela's online, order free ship to store and pick it up a box at a time.

    Plus I have nearly as much .22LR on hand already [8D]

    How about this one, berdan steel case 223 at 4.2 cents each?

    Isn't Paypal pretty unhappy about people using their service for ammunition?
    I used to recruit for the NRA until they sold us down the river (again!) in Heller v. DC. See my auctions (if any) under username henryreilly

    Off by a factor of ten there ... plus shipping ... and yes PayPal would be upset if they caught on that it was ammo. PayPal is selectively anti-gun. If it is something that ebay will sell, PayPal pretends it is alright by them. That's because ebay has a hypocritical gun policy and owns PayPal.

    Thus PayPal's gun policy is equally full of fecal matter. Click here:

    After his insane shipping it a whopping .248 cents per!

    But, you can see where his logic is coming from if you read his description. He says it was "BUY IT NOW IS .23 cents a rnd. sorry this much was not easy or cheap for me to get my hands on it" !!!!

    He is saying he panic purchased and now prices are falling like a rock, he is hoping to grab a sucker who hasn't caught on to the increasing supplies.

    He also says something I think The Capt would frown upon. "BUY IT NOW IS .23 cents a rnd. sorry this much was not easy or cheap for me to get my hands on it !!!! ******************************************* ANYONE INTERESTED IN THIS CONTACT ME PLEASE , MAKE A REAL OFFER AND MAYBE I SAY YES AND END AUCTION" !!!!

    OH NO YOU WON'T! [:D]

    AND then he goes on to say this "Sorry about the price of shipping but it's super heavy and ground only allows 55 pounds a box so it will all ship the same day but may be in 3 or 4 boxes"

    It can be shipped in 2 boxes for 40% of what he is asking for shipping.

    This guy is the PERFECT example of the guy so many wished would "choke" on their ammo. I almost pity him. But I offered him 4 cents a round shipped. I think that's a fair price.

    His other ammo auctions are similar. Federal XM193 ammo at $13.40 a box shipped is about $5 more per box than Cabela's had it on sale for a few days ago. Still $3 more a box than today's price.

    Was in a Walmart yesterday, they had UMC at $12 a box and Federal at $8.27.
